Regret the past, Work on the future

Regret the past, Work on the future

  • Water your tree while there's still some moisture left in it. Seek forgiveness for the time that you've wasted in the past. Perform good deeds for the future.
  • Try to enact every single virtuous deed and cry out for missing a single one as our righteous salaf (predecessors) used to do.
  • Days consists of hours and hours are made up of breaths you take. Every Breath is a treasure chest. Don't let any breath go wasted without doing a beneficial deed. You don't want to find any empty treasure on the day of Judgement.

The Price of Eternal Life?

The Price of Eternal Life?

  1. Paradise and Hellfire = Eternal
  2. Day of judgement = 50,000 Years long
  3. Time spent in the grave = Very long
  4. Time spent in this world = Say 60 years out of which about 30 hours is spent in sleep, 15 or so is spent in childhood and remaining is spent chasing after desires, food and money.

Is this the price of eternal life? What is for you to buy with it?
